ABSTRACT
This paper presents general aspects of funding system at higher education sector. Funding is not
simply a mechanism to allocate funds to finance HEIs but an instrument for the government or public
authorities to ensure the HEIs administration have the same goals with them, other than that the
funding adopted by the government to influence the behaviours of agents. n response to the
development of society and economy, the pattern of distribution of public funds in the education
sector particularly HE experience a change in the context of increasing competition for public funds
because of pressure from the community to enhance quality of education.
Keywords: Funding, higher education institutions, performance-based funding
1. Introduction
This paper presents a literature review of scholarly discussing the general aspects of funding
system and higher education sector. After that, discusses the funding systems in Higher
Education Institutions (HEIs) that adopted by the developed and developing countries. Next,
the paper focuses on the negotiation funding system and the various components and
techniques of Performance Based Funding (PBF) mechanisms.
2. Funding System
A funding system can be defined as a source of money that allocated to a specific purpose
(Dawkins, 1987). Funding is not simply a mechanism to allocate funds to finance HEIs but
an instrument for the government or public authorities to ensure the HEIs administration
have the same goals with them, other than that the funding adopted by the government to
influence the behaviours of agents or HEIs (Johnstone et al., 1998).
A fund can be recognized act of providing resources for examples federal government
setting aside money to build a new sport centre or a university setting aside money to award
a scholarship. Most Western countries such as Belgium, Canada, France and even the
European Commission shows that there is an increasing interest for new types of audit
1
system, evaluation and reporting of financial system transparent and disclose the results and
performance of public sector organization (Pollitt, 2004). Improvements in public funding
system involve a shift from provision of incremental development of public budgets to
performance criteria and have been interpreted as an effort on the component of the public
funding to use more systematic and position to control the activities of organizational
performance and to improve the efficiency and quality of public sector (Taylor, 2003).
There are significant differences in the funding system for Higher Education (HE) and the
different mechanisms used in the distribution of government allocations. Salmi and
Hauptman (2006a) presented a typology of funding system that differentiate the funding
either through negotiated formula, demand-side vouchers, performance-based funding,
funding for specific purposes and/or combined funding for teaching and research, block
grant funding and project funding. The method of funding systems implemented have
diverging impact, but it seem contributed to advantage and disadvantage to the policy
makers who are liberated to choose not only the basis of funding but additionally unwanted
effect as well (Frølich et al., 2010).
2.1 Negotiation Funding System
Negotiation funding system is one of the most common methods used. It also the first step
for many other alternative dispute resolution procedures. Successful negotiations usually
result in some sort of exchange or gain advantages in outcomes of collective advantages.
Exchanges may be significant examples money, time commitments or specific behaviours
or intangible ways such as an agreement to change the attitudes or expectations, or apology
(Pruitt & Carnevale, 1993). In the education sectors traditional fund distribution technique,
the provision of funding is determined by a negotiation involving the government and HEIs,
through input criteria and historical trends as reference (Ahmad et al., 2012a; Salmi &
Hauptman, 2011; Strehl et al., 2007). HEIs and systems in most countries typically are
funded through negotiated budgets or funding formulas that focus on inputs or the number
of students enrolled. According to Salmi & Hauptman (2011), the amount of funding
determined through the negotiation process, conventionally predicted on historical trends
and typically distributed to HEIs in Line-item budgets or Block Grants.

The negotiation fund allocated has been criticized as non-transparent system and fund
passed on interest should be changed to fund mechanism that transparent and guarantee the
quality of performance as the public wanted in higher education (Archer et al., 2005).
Likewise Schwarzenberger (2008) also highlighted the results of negotiations would
typically uncertain and because the process somewhat lacked transparency, leaving room of
questions about the government's decision, funding mechanisms based on more
performances criteria that would also promote an increase of efficiency and would give
some degree of intelligibility and confident. The bureaucratic involve at some stage in
negotiation process provides no reason for efficiency, entrenches conservatism, makes it
extremely difficult to rapidly adjust the allocation of resources to meet changing
requirements, and inhibits HEIs from adapting to the demand for relevant quality needed
(Albrecht & Ziderman, 1992b).
2.2 Performance Based Funding (PBF)
Evolution of allocation funds mechanisms for public expenditure and investment in a
number of countries, from the traditional type of negotiations funding between the
government and HEIs to increasingly sophisticated funding mechanisms to protect the
distribution results from excessive political pressure and encourage desired behaviours
HEIs. Performance based funding (PBF) is a mechanism in which output or activities result
been used to evaluate the quality and effectiveness of institution amongst public HEIs
(Burke, 2002) . This mechanism resulted from the multiple stresses that HEIs and
government have to endure to ensure their budgets sufficient and able to provide a high
quality education for future generations. PBF is mainly applied in the healthcare and higher
education sectors (Curristine, 2005).
For several countries such as United Kingdom (UK), Australia and Denmark governments
allocate public funds for higher education based on performance evaluations, normally have
specified indicators (Burke, 2002; Herbst, 2007; Liefner, 2003).
Consequently, the PBF mechanism been created to deal with more than just the problem of
limited funding, it also designed in an attempt to form a culture of assessment and
institutional improvement in HEIs around the world
To establish a funding and budgeting system that transparent using PBF mechanism,
government must identify performance indicators of HEIs (Schiller & Liefner, 2007).
Performance indicators in PBF mechanism vary according to the appropriateness of a
country's higher education system, in fact not limited to student achievement, performance
assessments, student attendance, graduation rates, certificates conferred or course
completion. several country use the statistics of graduates, the amount of research grant
funds, and research and journals publications, as type of performance indicators (Cuenin,
3
1987; Guthrie & Neumann, 2007). The majority HEIs worldwide have already adopted PBF
mechanisms that rely on performance indicators (Jongbloed & Vossensteyn, 2001).

Kaufman (1988) disagree that performance indicators must correlated to specific
measurement of processes or activities because like a connection which is necessary to
decide whether a process or activities is perform efficiently . Performance indicators (PIs)
are so dependent variables and can be different based on the comprehensive purpose they
are intended to provide.
2.3 Summary of the Pros and Cons of Negotiations Funding Method
In response to the development of society and economy, the pattern of distribution of public
funds in the education sector particularly HE experience a change in the context of
increasing competition for public funds because of pressure from the community to enhance
quality of education (Estermann et al., 2013). Government and HEIs, through traditional
financing methods of the negotiation process will determine the amount of public funds
allocated to each institution based on the input criteria and historical trends (Salmi &
Hauptman, 2006b). Direct negotiations between governments and HEIs, basically based on
historical data for instance, precedent allocation hence there are two types of negotiations
funding method exist which are line-item budgeting and block grant (Melonio &
Mezouaghi, 2010).
The beginning of each funds negotiation process is when the HEIs submitted proposal to the
government based on the provisions of the activities of their institutions (Jongbloed, 2001).
Usually negotiations development funds request continues between governments officials
entrusted with HEIs leaders’ takes place in private or invisible to the public (Zusman, 2005).
5
There are three (3) traditional financing mechanisms in HEIs which are negotiated budget,
formula funding, and categorical funds (Salmi & Hauptman, 2006b).
Fig 1. Type of Traditional Funding Mechanisms
Barr (2004) pointed out that, the key in the process of negotiating allocation of funds is the
political skills of negotiators, furthermore in official documents, extensive compromise and
agreement between the parties involved are generally not written clearly (Zusman, 2005).
Therefore, when HEIs “voluntarily” accept and follow everything that is required by
government or policy makers under threat of funds reduction consequently, it is difficult to
interpret whether there is or not political elements that does not fit with the internal
governance and development of HEIs (Zusman, 2005).
The advantages of negotiations funding mechanism, the methods is relatively simple, lack
of ambiguity and can easily control expenditure based on a comparison to previous years in
spite of widely used, however it still have limitations and creates problem to HEIs one of
which is line-item budget do not provide information on the financial flow used and does
not provide information efficiency and effectiveness of program (WorldBank, 1998). On the
other hand, the extent to which HEIs capability to allocate funds according to the needs of
the importance of their activities or programs (Salmi & Hauptman, 2006b). Based on Word
Bank (1998), line-item budget only takes in account the short-term and therefore will lead to
long-term failure.
Negotiation mechanism has not been an effective mechanism for allocating fund for HEIs
for the reason that there is no system in place that ensure the courses of HEIs offer meet the
needs of the local labour market therefore restructuring fund distribution method through
performance management emphasizing (Albrecht & Ziderman, 1992a).

2.4 Review of Performance Based Funding (PBF) Mechanisms
PBF mechanism or some of scholars namely the mechanism as performance-based
budgeting (PBB) and performance-based school funding (PBSF) grew in attractiveness in
the United States (US) at some point in the late 1990s as US government looked to financial
fund for the limited resources they had to finish off (King & Mathers, 1997; Young, 2003).
A lot of country used PBF as a technique to reward HEIs or in abroad organizations for their
capability to produce the desired educational outcome and result as well increase efficiency
in various areas of student performance (Lucas & Spitler, 1999).
PBF authorized for the allocation of a public funding to amongst HEIs that demonstrated
particular standards indicators performance. Changes brought about by the educational
reforms towards increased accountability provide the impetus to numerous countries
implementation of PBF mechanism (Zarkesh & Beas, 2004). From prior research and
studies illustrate that when an organization or institutions does not achieve a optimum
performance with a PBF mechanism, it is frequently due to the actuality that the mechanism
did not compatible with the organization or the organization did not implement the PBF all
over the whole organization (Dinesh & Palmer, 1998). As well as, the size of the HE sector
matters for the development and implementation of PBF systems (Barr, 2004).
PBF involving public funds and goods to provides an output oriented system that is seen by
policy makers as a way to increase efficiency and improve public accountability, apart from
the reduction of dependence on a system based on input (Estermann, et al., 2013). It is
important that countries which have limited funding resources to ensure the money invested
in the appointed of development of public HE sector are used efficiently and effectively to
enhance countries productivity, improve the competiveness of human resources and creating
a knowledge society (Auranen & Nieminen, 2010).
The relationship between PBF and public fund tied directly and tight at the same time to the
performance of HEIs on one or more performance indicators that have been set (Thorn et
al., 2004). In spite of that, PBF increase the differentiation in HE sector (Lewis, 2009).
Salmi and Hauptman (2006b) state provisions and allocations based on PBF mechanism is
different compare to the mechanisms or approach adopted previously because most of other
7
mechanisms tend to use performance indicators that reflect public objectives rather than
HEIs needs. They include incentives HEIs improvement.
PBF aims to support initiatives that could promote the excellence in teaching and research.
For instance in New Zealand rewards for excellence in research activities at national and
international level to create incentives for to focus their research in the area of excellence
(Roberts, 2006). Under PBF mechanism system, qualitative and quantitative performance
indicators used to measure the quality of research or teaching HEIs with the intention to
enhancing and measuring performance and for generally, access to high quality information
that could enhance student’s ability to make decisions about appropriate courses of study
(Johnes & Taylor, 1990).
Allocation of funds between HEIs department (faculties, departments, research teams) on
the basic of performance provide increasing of productivity and eventually their overall
output performances (Koelman & Venniker, 2001). In the meantime, the HEIs will work
according to the Key Performance Indicators target and budget allocated based on project
that justified.
2.4.1 Components of PBF
In the practice of PBF mechanisms, there are four components of PBF as described in
below:
i. Performance contracts
Performance contracts are viewed as a technique to ensure that the service provider is
responsible for results service. In the agreement of performance contracts regardless with a
private or nonprofits institutions clearly defined and specify what type and level of
performance supposed to be achieved. In the PBF mechanism, the funding was not based on
history trends activities but rather on guarantee of prospect and future performance and
there were no penalties if performance objectives were not accomplished however all
depends on the agreements concluded collectively (Edlin & Schwartz, 2003). Incentives
should be provided to enable the institution to achieve optimum performance while the
penalty charged for the institutions that fail to meet the objectives, all of this should be
clearly stated in the contract for performance (Salmi & Hauptman, 2006a).
ii. Performance Set Aside
The meaning of performance set asides depends on the part of funding that have been
separated or reserved for special purpose or extra of performance (Odden & Clune, 1995;
Rosenthal et al., 2005). The set aside funding is specified usually between government and
HEIs negotiation method (Ahmad, 2013). According to Salmi and Hauptman (2006a) in
their research regarding innovation of HEIs funding, the country that used performance set
aside in their fund allocation are South Africa and US. This may be a “bonus” fund or a
separate portion of a fixed fund allocation (Harnisch, 2011). HEIs compete in order to
obtain funds from this set aside account.
iii. Competitive funding
Competitive funding a method which refers to performance historical trends and the HEIs
that shows a good performance in the past will be chosen to obtain the funds. In particular,
increased competition develop stress towards increased size, economies of scale,
professional management, institutions sophistication, and the ability to access funds to
perform (Thomas, 2007). Mok (2003) stated that Hong Kong used competitive funding for
8
the intention is to improve the education quality services and encourage responsibility
in administration of public funds.
iv. Payment by Result (PbR)
Payment by results is category of public fund method where funds are dependent on the
result performance. “Open public services: white paper By Great Britain: Cabinet Office:
(2011) stated that, PbR is being dynamically suggested by numerous governments for more
effective implementation a way to achieve increased value for money by aligning incentives
to essential result PbR also can be review as a payment in which performer fund depend on
how well achieved targeted performance.
2.5.
The Advantages and Disadvantages of PBF
PBF become known as a system of funding to modify, complement or replace other funding
mechanisms to encourage and respond to policy concerns more effectively. PBF aims to
support initiatives that serve to encourage quality of teaching, learning and research. For
instance, the rewards for research activities at national and level of excellence create
incentives for New Zealand higher education organization to concentrate their research in
the area of excellence given that culture of high quality research support and enhance
teaching and learning environment, particularly in postgraduate level (Thrupp, 2010). Table
below indicated the summary of advantages and disadvantages of PBF system.
